In some much-needed good news for the office sector, large office users are staying put and renewing their office spaces. Vertex, Bank of America, Bloomberg, Fannie Mae and other large users recently extended their HQ spaces from 200,000 up to 1,000,000 square feet - all across the country. While positive absorption is not impacted by renewals, supply remained steady signaling a bottom to the work-from-home impact to occupancy. Is this the right time to find office deals for both office tenants and office investors? We think so.

We also consider two new supertall office towers planned in Miami's Brickell Avenue district.

The looming commercial real estate crisis gained national attention this week. Blackstone, Deutsche Bank, and Harvard Business all point to the staggering challenges facing the commercial real estate sector; especially the office sector.

Rent Caps Part Two - President Biden recently announced a 5% cap on apartment rents, though there was some confusion as he struggled to read '5%' on the teleprompter, accidentally suggesting a $55 cap. This raises questions about the effectiveness of rent caps in addressing America's housing crisis. What implications will this have for future development? Do rent caps have a successful track record, such as in New York? It's worth pondering why, if the President views rent caps as a definitive solution to soaring housing costs, why he did not implement this measure back in 2021 when the average rent was around $1,150 per month, in contrast to the current average of approximately $1,411 per month. The timing of this policy, introduced less than four months before the Election after three and a half years of inflation, is also noteworthy.
